Abstract

In a setting with dispersed information, monopolistic competition and sticky-prices, a policy authority uncertain about the monetary transmission mechanism reacts prudently to supply shocks. This induces producers to ascribe an excessive importance to their private information when setting prices. To correct the ensuing inefficiency a state-contingent fiscal policy is required.
